Things that I've already started in april[1].

@team, we spoke about redesigning start.fpo, don't know where we are.
But we could change the default search engine to duckduckgo, and add a
discrete box like:
"Don't like the default search engine? Join us and contribute to a new
feature, called "Select the default search engine during the install
process!"

Like that we
1) break things
2) ask people that don't like this change to contribute
3) move forward
